Meet Miles, a 7-year-old boy who doesn’t just master pBone.
“It’s my paper clip. It’s called pBone because it’s for kids,” Miles said as he showed off how to play a C note on the instrument.
He also masters guitar, piano, saxophone, drums, violin, and those may not even be his greatest amazing talents. Miles, who just turned 7, can also edit all those sounds in combination and upload his own voice into complicated software to create his own songs or recreate hits through other artists, note by note.
“Don’t you forget an old song, a song you can play and you said, ‘Oh my God, can I do this?I can play this song totally,'” correspondent Luke Burbank asked.
“[Bob Dylan’s] ‘Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door, I think,” Miles said.
“Really?”
“Yes, it is, it’s easy,” Miles replied.
Well, simple for “Miles the Music Kid” anyway, as it passes. Miles recognizes a song when he hears it, and several celebrities have noticed, adding musician and maker Questlove.
“Thousands, my man. My partner,” Questlove in a video for Miles.
Remember the drums? It’s a gift from Questlove himself.
He has even been praised through some of his favorites when it comes to music production, adding singer Charlie Puth.
“Thousands. It’s for you,” Puth at a concert.
And the legendary DJ and music maker Mark Ronson.
“People like Mark Ronson are musical geniuses,” Burbank said.
“Yes,” Miles replied.
“How do you hear?”
“Uh, very satisfied and very. Just very, very satisfied. “
In fact, it’s helping that Miles turns out to have the best foundation. But whether or not his parents are not professional musicians.
My goal is to be a wonderful mother,” Miles’ mother said.
“On social media, very often, other people comment and say, ‘Oh, of course, Dad is a wonderful manufacturer. Who is he? And they see which, what a wonderful manufacturer the father is. And yes, you know, it’s neither,” Miles’ father said.
Miles’ father, who is a software developer, shared videos a few years ago with friends and family. They convinced him to start posting on social media so the rest of the world could see it. And yet, despite all this attention, Miles’ parents seek to maintain at least some point of normalcy for the family, which is why they asked “CBS Sunday Morning” not to fully identify them, or Miles, in this room.
“I mean, it’s a small component of her life, and we’re looking to separate her from her genuine, non-public life,” her mother said.
“Our number one task as parents is, first and foremost, with our children. Second, it’s doing the things that help them thrive,” his father added.
“You’ll also be satisfied by him, no matter what career he chooses,” Burbank said.
“Absolutely,” Miles’ father replied.
“And then I’ll show you this song that I’m running on,” Miles said.
“The existing name of this is what?”
“The best ever,” Miles said.
How long have you been participating in The Coolest Song Ever?” asked Burbanks.
“A few days. “
Wherever Miles discovers himself in terms of career, he told “CBS Sunday Morning” that he needs to be a musician/coder/conductor. It’s pretty transparent that you’re on the right track, or on the right paths.
